# Hosting with plugins

 * Hi,
 * I’d like to use WP as a CMS for a small website, and I’m looking for a hosted
   solution.
 * However I need certain plugins like forums, tag cloud, calendar(s) etc. Are there
   any companies that host WP that offer these kind of functions out of the box?
 * (I could set up WP myself at a cheap host, but I do not have the time to maintain
   it, and need something that just works, upgrades taken care of etc.)
 * Thanks for any help and tips!

 * Hi kwurp,
 * Almost all hosting services provide you with ability to install WP by pressing
   of a button.
    There are plugins for everything in the plugin directory in this
   site.
 * DO expect to invest some time to adjust setting and instal plugins. When you 
   install WP start by adjusting basic setting of wordpress [spam link moderated]
 * Don’t hesitate to start using WP. It’s great

 * OK, so what you say is
    -  most hosting services have one-click install of WP
    - plugins can be installed by “one-click” as well?
    - the hosting company will take care of (security) upgrades etc?
 * Thanks for helping me out, (apart from reading blogs, I do not have much knowledge
   of WP) 🙂
